I'm a bit torn on this one - is it government overreach or not? The thing that just manages to tip me to the 'support' side is that if they follow the model used in NZ then nobody has their rights taken away. It will continue to be legal for anyone who currently smokes to continue to do so, it just doesn't become legal for anyone for who it currently isn't.
I smoke occasionally. The odd Cuban cigar usually when I'm on holiday or a special occasion. However I don't like to judge those who smoke regularly. My Grandad died at 65 due to smoking. Probably took ten years off his life. However....every photo you see of him he is a man at ease with himself. Absolutely content with his lot in life. And yes there's always a cigarette in his hand.
I think there's far worse things that youngsters need protection from.
